Raid 10 basically just gives performance over Raid 1. You might Raid 1 SSDs but Raid 10 is likely to be a very expensive way to hit your IO bus limits.

Given that, assuming it is spinning disk is a reasonable assumption, and the accusation of a strawman was unnecessarily rude.

I don't find it to be unnecessarily rude. It was a legitimate critique of the poster's own assumptions. I guess that because I'm not an HN "insider" I'm not allowed to challenge someone's assumptions. Only once you hit the magical karma level are you able to do such things.
